Chapter 258: The Smith
“No, how could you let me see this for the rest of my life?” Geng Chen firmly refused.
“What are you talking about? Have you ever seen me interested in girls other than the heroine? I just want to take a look, that’s all.”
Just as Geng Chen was about to respond, he was stunned by a sudden notification sound.
“Ding!”
World Announcement: Congratulations to the family “Buwenbuwen” for successfully creating the guild “Canglan Yaoshi”! As the second established guild, all guild members will receive a 5% increase in experience points from killing monsters and completing quests for 7 days.
The second guild… has been established?
In addition to the 2% experience bonus from the guild itself, there’s also a 5% bonus from being the second.
With this, recruiting members has one more benefit; anyone looking to level up quickly would consider this guild.
“This guild must have been created by him, right?” Geng Chen exclaimed, thinking about how he would cry if someone else got there first.
“I’m not sure, I don’t have any impression of this ID and guild name. Wait, I’ll ask him.” After saying this, Endless Sea walked to a corner, seemingly starting a private chat.
Achen, if you’re taking people, then I won’t go. The level difference between us is too large now; I want to practice alone for a day.
With two skill trees plus Impressive Strikes, and having already collected three pieces of the Radiance of Cold Crystal set, this kind of strength probably means solo farming. As long as I prepare some blue potions, leveling up alone is the fastest.
“Solo farming? …Fine, you go ahead.” Brother Shiu’s reaction was not very quick, which was just right for him to practice his positioning.
“Okay, then I’m off.”
After Brother Shiu left, Wencheng spoke up, “Zanny, Starry, what were your point rewards yesterday?”
Point rewards? I almost forgot that was a thing!
I scrolled back through the system messages and quickly found it.
First was his own.
System Notification: Your points in this city-seizing event are 2,750,000, ranking tenth, and you have received the Sin Ring (Level 35 Gold Tier), along with 100 Reputation Points.
Sin Ring:
Rarity: Gold Tier
Required Level: 35
Physical Defense: 34
Magical Defense: 55
Intelligence: 76
Stamina: 37
Agility: 44
Traits: Ring of Sin, each time you activate an offensive skill or perform a normal attack, it inflicts 5% of your maximum health as self-harm.
Trait: Shared Sin, attaches your inflicted sin damage onto the target, dealing 50% sin damage effect.
Description: Punishment of sin, dare you endure it with me?
A Level 35 gold bracelet, its attributes are slightly low.
But the two traits are very interesting.
The Ring of Sin is a self-harm skill that subtracts 5% of maximum health with each output, while Shared Sin can inflict half the deducted health onto the enemy.
If in Alna form, with a current health of 17,540, that means… each attack adds +439 damage?
Seems quite nice.
Wait a minute, does that mean if I use Magic Sword Technique, it equals to losing health while drawing power, a hybrid physical and magical attack?
It feels like there are more and more strange pieces of equipment…
System Notification: Your points in this city-seizing event are 4,920,000, ranking third, and you have obtained the Resolute Gauntlets (Level 35 Gold Tier), along with 400 Reputation Points.
Resolute Gauntlets:
Rarity: Gold Tier
Required Level: 35
Physical Defense: 86
Magical Defense: 57
Stamina: 46
Agility: 67
Strength: 79
Trait: Combat Will, does not die immediately when entering death state; can continue fighting for 2 seconds with a 1-hour cooldown.
Description: When you wear it, the resolute will drives you forward.
The attributes are not bad, but the trait seems a bit redundant; Starry has never died even once since leveling up, not sure what use this has.
However, it’s a Level 35 gold item, just the numbers alone are way beyond the white silk gauntlets, so it’s definitely worth switching.
By the way, after reaching Level 35, Starry can equip the Lightweight Battle Suit now.
“These two pieces, how about you?” Lan Chen shared the information screenshot with Wencheng.
“Such strange traits… but the attributes are quite nice. I, on the other hand, didn’t get any equipment but obtained this.” She mimicked a grabbing action and took out… a seed from her backpack.
What is this? Does this game also allow planting flowers and trees? No wait, how can point rewards be so dismissive?
Check the information!
Seed of Life: A seed containing the hope of life, will grow on its own when used.
(Note: Please do not play this in public areas!)
This is…?
“Wencheng, what was your reward for ranking?” Lan Chen quickly asked.
“First place…”
“What???”
Alright, now Lan Chen was almost certain that this Seed of Life must have something fishy about it.
Last time with the Sacred Demon Beetle, it started out seeming like just a pet for observation, but now Mo Se had become one of his indispensable partners.
“Then you should keep it and not use it randomly. If possible, plant it in the Red Plains; even if anything goes wrong, it wouldn’t be impossible to deal with it there.”
“Got it.” Wencheng nodded in understanding.
At this moment, Endless Sea returned, “Brother Fengchen, I asked around, and that Buwenbuwen and Huishi are friends, he wasn’t getting ahead of anyone.”
“That’s good.”
“Oh, and he asked if we wanted to join Canglan Yaoshi; he said he could offer us a vice position.”
“No need, let’s just create our own tomorrow.” Geng Chen shook his head.
“Okay, then I’ll decline.”
“Mhm.”
……
For safety reasons, he still refused to bring Endless Sea along.
“Brother Fengchen, you’re too unforgiving! Don’t think I’ll send you any more ridiculous pictures in the future!” Endless Sea lamented.
Haven’t you ever sent any, okay!
In the end, he went to practice with Wencheng and Jiangxia. Wencheng said her new pet’s growth stars are very high, so it was just right to go farm a bit.
Most of the people were gone, it was time to call little sis.
“Jian Yu, where are you now? I’ll take you level up.” He casually sent a message over.
“Let me check… Guiding Point, wait, I’m almost done with my task.”
“Task?” What task is there at the Guiding Point?
“The job transfer task! My classmate said I can change jobs after reaching level 10.”
“Job transfer? What profession did you choose?”
“Smith.” Feng Yu quickly replied, “Brother, this profession is so strange, I haven’t seen it among the nine major professions…”
“…Smith? Sounds like a secondary profession, but isn’t that called a Blacksmith for the secondary profession?
Forget it, let’s talk about it after I get there.
The Guiding Point is just a 2-minute walk from here, and Feng Chen quickly spotted the familiar building.
Although it had just opened for a short time, it was still packed with people, many more were gathering outside to watch.
There were too many people, making it hard to see anyone inside, and he had no idea where Feng Yu was.
By the way, what were all these people doing gathered here?
Hey!
Suddenly, from above the crowd in the front room, a huge blue-black hammer emerged.
“Little Y, give it a try.” A hearty uncle’s voice came from inside.
